The condo is very charming, clean and comfortable. Mike is very good about connecting, helping with questions and being available if you need him. A real pleasure to stay there!
Our stay at Mike’s place was wonderful! It was the perfect size for three of us and it was very pleasant. We cooked most of our meals there and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed using the boogie boards and snorkel gear. There is enough gear for a family of four and it is all in good shape. It was nice not to have to rent any of those items. The beds were comfortable and there is plenty of closet space and drawers if you want to use them for your clothes. The location is great and the parking is easy. We drove all over the island during our stay and this was a nice place to come home to. Mike was quick to respond to questions while we were staying there and provided recommendations for dining and activities. We enjoyed dining on the lenai and were visited by turkeys and quail every day. The grocery store was conveniently right across the street and there are some new coffee shops and restaurants opening up nearby.
A few things to note: there is no AC, but as long as you open the sliders and windows when it cools off outside and close them in the morning before it warms up outside, it is pleasant enough inside. Also, make sure to not leave out any dirty dishes in the kitchen sink or you will get tiny ants and other tiny bugs in the kitchen. As long as you wash everything after each meal and don’t leave any dirty dishes or food out, you won’t get ants.
All in all we would definitely recommend this place and would stay there again if we came back to the Big Island.
We had wonderful time in Hawaii. Lots of beach chairs, umbrella, snorkeling and boogie boards. good amount of spices and Ziplocs. Two queen size mattresses were little too soft for us, but everything else was superb. Mike answered our questions promptly via text. Easy Check-in/out. We will be back for sure. Thank you Mike!
Very good location, other than there are not many good choices for restaurants. Quite/safe neighborhood. The house is spacious, and the laundry machines /beach chairs are very handy. The host responses very quickly. The bed in the second bedroom is kind of squeaky.
Great location for two couples. Very quiet and the temperature was perfect. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the bodyboards and snorkeling equipment. Would certainly recommend this location location
Great host - he texted us to let us know all the details. The condo was well stocked, including boogie boards! They were perfect for our day at hapuna beach. We walked to the grocery store, conveniently across the street. Loved seeing the turkeys, pigs, etc walk through the back yard. Would definitely recommend!
Great location. Easy to get to and shopping near by. Close to beaches. 30 minute drive into Kona. Owner was very nice to work with!
Very cute, well appointed vacation rental away from tourist central… the location provides breezes and cooler nights than beachside…. Which is 10 min away…
This little working family condo community is made up of ten units with four residences in each and was very welcoming and friendly. The ground floor condo is a little dark in the morning but that can be good after full days in the sun. We had breakfast out on the patio every morning and that backyard view can be interesting - we saw wild turkeys and the neighbors said they occasionally see wild pigs and stray cattle! As long as you are OK with being up the hill and away from the coast about 5-6 miles, and not walking distance to a beach, you will probably really like this place. This condo is less than 20 minutes away from one of my favorite beaches in all of the Hawaiian islands is Hapuna Beach. Grocery store, espresso, and other stores are only across the street, 2- minute walk.
Great condo conveniently located near groceries and my favorite thrift store, Dusty Donkey. Walked to both numerous times. Nice to have beach gear available, very thoughtful to provide these items as it makes it possible to not have to check a bag full of these large items thus, saving those fees for other fun things! When there was an issue, John was right on it and he was very personable.
Loved waking up to the birds singing. Even the turkeys were fun...who doesn't love a parade?
